My house backs on to a livestock market, so rats are a regular occurrence. Poison is probably the best way of dealing with them. If you do use poison, be sure to remove all other potential food sources. Mice and rats tend to be naturally suspicious, and will often pass up a new food source if one already exists. You mentioned that your management have already set up poison. How long ago was this? Rodenticides generally take several days to take effect, so don't expect a pile of dead mice surrounding the bait station. If this is an ongoing problem, take the advice of the previous posters and block up any access points you can. Also, keep a few bait stations around even after the initial infestation has been dealt with, and check them regularly. If you do, any new infestation will be doomed by the time you notice it. Traps are good at picking off individual mice, but poison is the way to go after them wholesale. Wax blocks beat loose grain poisons hands-down, as they're harder for the rodents to drag off and spread around. With regard to the dead mouse smell, I'm partially anosmic, so can't help you there.
